Rebirth starts with small money

Chapter 571
During the dot-com bubble crisis in 2000, almost all companies involved in the computer and Internet-related industries suffered.

Not only the stock prices of those listed companies have plummeted, even those companies that are not listed ~ have also been affected.

After all~the characteristics of Internet companies are there, not to mention anything else~just funding is a long-standing problem.

And when the Internet bubble burst ~ most investors no longer pursued the computer and Internet industry as before, the behavior of taking money from investors' pockets with a business plan. After that, almost Difficult to reproduce again.

To put it bluntly~ If the Internet bubble had appeared a few years earlier, the number of computer Internet companies in the world would have dropped by at least two-thirds.

Of course ~ this is actually a paradox.After all, the premise is that there must be an Internet bubble, but when the Internet bubble occurs, it will inevitably lead to the current status quo.

But in any case, the crisis brought about by the bursting of the Internet bubble still made a large number of investors sober.

Can the computer Internet vote?Of course I can vote!
Even if the Internet bubble bursts, the future of the computer Internet is actually already there.

Can be an investor~ basically there will be no fools, and anyone with a little vision can actually see the prospect and future of the computer Internet.

But although you can invest, you must not invest indiscriminately like in the past.

It can’t be just about anything, as long as it has something to do with the computer Internet, investors can pay for it.

This kind of thing can be done in the past, because those investors know very well that even if those companies are not bullshit, but because of the name of the computer Internet, someone will pay for it.

Yes~ In fact, these investors are not unaware that they have invested in some stinky shit before, but they are very clear~ Even if it is stinky shit, as long as someone takes over the deal, there will be profits to be made.

Now that the bubble has burst, and everyone knows that stinky shit is stinky shit, naturally there won't be so many fools to take over.

So... now they need to be more cautious.

Um~ yes, you just need to be a little more cautious.After all, for these capitals, even if the Internet bubble bursts, the damage to them is not as great as imagined.

It's just that they need to adjust their investment strategy, from the past "spreading the net" to normal investment.

This sounds funny, but it is true, because in the past few years, investing in the computer and Internet industry is indeed not a normal investment behavior.

Now that the bubble has burst, for them~ it's just turning the madness of the past into normality, so how much can they lose?
The consequence of this is that various investment institutions have lowered their investment scale for the Internet industry.

Those who could give 1000 million in the past can now give 500 million or even less.

Just like Xiao Ma's Penguin.com, it was for this reason that Chen Li had to be approached.

Otherwise, Xiao Ma would definitely not want to see Chen Li become the largest shareholder of Penguin.com.

And this phenomenon similar to Penguin~ can be said to be everywhere at the current stage.

And this kind of time is precisely the best time for a reborn person like Chen Li to attack.

But it's a pity~ Chen Li was not a professional in the Internet industry in his previous life, and his knowledge and understanding of the Internet is limited to some short video reveals or popular science.

This also led to Chen Li not having a deep understanding of the Internet industry in 2000.

Enterprises such as Jiulang~Wangnan~Sohu, of course Chen Li knew that there should have been Ari and Tengxun, but now Ari is gone, and Tengxun has become Chen Li's personal property.

So... Chen Li really didn't know who to vote for.

There is no way~ Although domestic Internet companies can be found everywhere in 2000, but to be honest~ there are really not many companies that can survive to 20 years and even have enough popularity and scale.

Those companies that can be remembered by Chen Li ~ a large part of this society has not yet been born in 2000!
In other words, even though some companies were born, Chen Li didn't remember them.

So ~ instead of investing in those industries and companies that Chen Li is not familiar with, Chen Li simply set his sights on the far side of the ocean.

As a result, the domestic Internet companies that have just been listed have suffered disasters.

Because Chen Li remembered very clearly that after the stocks of these companies were listed, because of the impact of the Internet bubble crisis, almost every stock fell to about one dollar in the end.

So ~ Chen Li can completely short these companies first, and then wait until these companies fall to a certain stage, and directly come to buy the bottom.

At the same time~ Chen Li will also invest a lot of money in the stock markets of many companies such as Apple~Amazon.

To be honest~ It is even more cost-effective to invest money in these companies than direct investment.

After all, the stock prices of some companies will even increase hundreds of times in the next 20 years.

If it is a simple investment of 20 years, it is likely that you will not get so much return.

Of course~ this is just a way for Chen Li to deal with excess funds, mainly because the industries under his name can't spend that much money at all.

Of course~ Chen Li can also continue to start new projects, let alone hundreds of millions of dollars, even billions and tens of billions of dollars are not enough for Chen Lihua.

Don't say it~ Chen Li really thought about it when he didn't have the money at the beginning.

From Chen Li's point of view at that time, there was only money that was not enough to spend, so how could there be funds that could not be spent?

But when Chen Li had the money, he discovered a very real problem. There was too much money, and he really couldn't spend it.

The reason is very simple. Although Chen Li is a reborn person, he has many entrepreneurial cases of successful people in the next 20 years in his mind.

But Chen Li was just an ordinary person in his previous life.Note that the key point here is not only the ordinary person, but also the "one"!
Yes~ Chen Li is just a person, an ordinary person.

It takes a long time for an enterprise to go from creation to development to growth and so on.

In this process, not only funds ~ time ~ but also the efforts of relevant staff and so on.

There is an old saying that goes well~ called one step at a time!
Only in this way can we continue to move forward in a down-to-earth manner.

Taking Chen Li's current development as an example, he actually regretted opening several maps in a foolish way.

Obviously, the ideal fried chicken was not completely straightened out, so he ran to open some Shennong beer, but the beer was a mess, and he asked Ren Xiaobo to start a farming product.

Then the farming of agricultural products had just started to improve, and Chen Li suddenly acquired another OICQ.

Before the OICQ was settled, Chen Li suddenly stepped into the financial field.

This. On the surface~ Chen Li's plate seems to be getting bigger and bigger, but in fact many of these industries are just getting started.

In particular, these industries were created by Chen Li in just two years. In such a short period of time, Chen Li has spanned several industries. It seems that it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a mess.

Of course~ From Chen Li's point of view, he didn't feel this way.

He seemed to think that many things were done smoothly, but this kind of investment across multiple industries was not something Chen Li could handle at all.

So~ Don't look at Chen Li's plate now, but in fact, the only ones that can really bring benefits to Chen Li are the ideal fried chicken led by Su Mei and the capital market on Mu Xiaoqing's side.

Needless to say, ideal fried chicken, in fact, until now, the only industry that Chen Li has really cared about is ideal fried chicken.

Others, whether it is beer or agricultural product breeding, etc., are all handled by others.

There is only Ideal Fried Chicken, no matter whether Chen Li opened his own shop at the beginning, or now Chen Li has become the shopkeeper, Chen Li still keeps paying attention to Ideal Fried Chicken.

As for Mu Xiaoqing's capital market, it is mainly because of the characteristics of this industry.

With Mu Xiaoqing's professional ability, and Chen Li as a cheating player, even just two of them can turn upside down in the capital market.

But other industries seem somewhat reluctant.

Needless to say, the beer industry, Deng Weimin almost used all his strength, and now just let the brewery get rid of losses.

Although Chen Li invested another sum of money in Deng Weimin not long ago, it can be ideal for the current development strategy of Beer, but it is almost impossible to develop in a short period of time.

Farming of agricultural products is similar, and it is still in the stage of spending money. Even if the prospects seem to be good, it is actually very difficult to come up with results in a short period of time.

As for the Internet, it is even more of a mess.

On hao123, a new project has been opened this year. Song Xiaolan is leading people to do research and research and development. The Dianping website that Chen Li mentioned to her before has now taken a prototype.

But OICQ is even more nonsense. Through Xu Xing's negotiation, Chen Li finally bought the entire OICQ at a price of 1200 million Huaxia coins.

But today's OICQ has some differences from the previous life due to a series of previous operations.

The most direct change is that .OICQ has more competitors.

That's right~ Now OICQ, which has been renamed QQ, was acquired by Chen Li, and Chen Li immediately promoted Lao Zhang to be the general manager of the company temporarily.

And at the first time, Chen Li announced that he would abandon the previous commercial operation, promised that QQ would provide users with permanent free use, and refunded some previous paid users.

First of all, Chen Li announced to provide QQ membership service for the same period of time to these paying users.

Secondly~ For the payments made by these few paid users, Chen Li proposed two compensation plans.

One is to use the model of phone bills to compensate paying users, and pay the corresponding phone bills on a monthly basis of [-] yuan per month.

The second option is to compensate paying users with the same amount of Q coins.

That's right~ After Chen Li acquired QQ, he immediately exchanged the corresponding Q coin mechanism from the system.

In fact, this thing is not complicated. Even if Lao Zhang and others were to develop it, it would not take long.

But Chen Li didn't have the patience to wait at all, and it was impossible for those paying users to wait.

And this new Q coin has three functions.

One can be used to open the new membership service of QQ, the other can be used to purchase virtual items in the QQ mall that QQ will soon launch, and the third can be used to purchase the upcoming QQ game service.

That's right~ Because QQ went on a wrong path before, Chen Li had to choose to spend money to buy time. After using the mall currency to clear the way, he exchanged directly from the system for the QQ mall and the QQ game hall.

For this reason~ Chen Li spent a lot of money in the mall, which can be said to have made Chen Li feel distressed for a long time.

However, even though Chen Li exchanged the QQ mall and QQ games, these two functions were not actually launched at the beginning.

The reason why it is not online is because after the commercial operation of OICQ, several instant messaging chat software appeared on the market.

One of them is called OCQ software, and even directly copied the interface and operation method of OICQ.

This made Chen Li dumbfounded, because OICQ copied foreign ICQ before, but now there is another OCQ in China, which directly copied OICQ.

What the hell is going on with this?
However, fortunately, during this period of time, the Internet bubble burst, and a large number of Internet companies experienced shrinking business or even were on the verge of bankruptcy due to the impact.

This OCQ is like this. Before Chen Li sent a lawyer's letter to the other party, OCQ had to announce the commercial operation in advance due to financial pressure, and then there was no more.

Originally, the reason why those users would give up OICQ was because OICQ announced charges, but now that OCQ is also coming out, users will naturally not pay the bill.

And it was at this time that OICQ, which had been renamed QQ, was acquired by Chen Li and announced its promise to be permanently free, so a large number of users began to return to QQ.

At the same time, QQ announced that it will soon launch the QQ Game Hall, which is mainly aimed at some small online chess and card games.

As a result, the number of registered users and online users of QQ suddenly skyrocketed by a large margin.

And at the end of this month, QQ will launch the QQ Mall service, and this step will also announce the official opening of QQ's road to profitability.

But how to say?

Although QQ took a detour before, with Chen Li's money-making ability, not only did it not waste time, it even saved a lot of time.

But at this time, Chen Li was a little tangled, because he was suddenly conflicted.

After he struggled, whether to let QQ take the road of games or not.

As I said before, Chen Li has always been reluctant to take the road of games. It's not that he doesn't want to make this kind of money, but he knows that taking this road will bring great damage to his reputation.

Just look at Mr. Chen from Shengda. This buddy will almost be numb in the next few years.

But the huge profits in the game industry made Chen Li not want to set foot in this industry, but also felt a little pity.

To put it bluntly~ Chen Li wants to be a whore to make money, but also wants to set up a memorial archway.

This is very difficult!
